Ingredients for Crockpot Beef Stew<\/h2>\n

Beef<\/strong> \u2013<\/em> The best beef for beef stew<\/strong> is chuck steak or chuck roast. Chuck is a flavorful cut of beef from the shoulder and front end of the animal. If you don\u2019t have chuck, stew meat<\/a> works well in this recipe too.<\/p>\n

Broth \u2013<\/strong><\/em> Use regular beef broth or beef stock (not reduced sodium) for the best results. The broth or gravy in this recipe adds vegetable juice (like V8), rosemary, and thyme. Replace the vegetable juice wiht 2 tablespoons of tomato paste if desired.<\/p>\n

Vegetables<\/strong> \u2013<\/em> This crockpot stew recipe uses carrots, potatoes, and celery. Any variety of potatoes can be used, red potatoes or Yukon golds do not require peeling. You can add extra vegetables like turnips or mushrooms if you\u2019d like.<\/p>\n

\n

While it\u2019s optional, red wine adds great flavor to this beef stew recipe. Replace one cup of beef broth with dry red wine<\/a>, such as Cabernet Sauvignon or Merlot and use it to deglaze the pan you used for browning the meat.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
